§ 01Overview
What the DS-2CD5A46G0-IZS is
The Hikvision DS-2CD5A46G0-IZS is a 4 MP DarkFighter motorised varifocal bullet aimed at professional sites that need to watch a long approach in poor light.
The large 1/1.8" sensor and an F1.2 P-Iris lens capture clean, low-noise detail in dim conditions, and 140 dB Wide Dynamic Range balances bright and dark areas in the same frame, which helps along driveways, fence lines and entrances where headlights or a bright sky would wash out an ordinary camera.
AcuSense deep-learning analytics classify human and vehicle targets, so line-crossing, intrusion and motion events trigger on people and cars and skip animals, rain and moving branches; the camera also captures faces for review.
The motorised 2.8 to 12 mm lens sets zoom and focus remotely, and built-in infrared reaches up to 50 m for clear black and white footage at night.
An RS-485 port and three alarm inputs and outputs let it tie into wider security systems.
This is a metal bullet rated IP67 and IK10 with a built-in heater for cold or exposed positions, and it ships with a DS-1260ZJ junction box for tidy cabling.
It supports a microSD card up to 256 GB and runs on PoE, 12 VDC or 24 VAC.
Audio is handled through a line-in and a line-out connector for an external microphone and speaker; there is no built-in microphone or speaker on this model.
Record it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR so the human and vehicle events stay quick to search.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD5A46G0-IZS
Smart, meaningful alerts
AcuSense human and vehicle classification keeps line-crossing and intrusion alarms focused on people and cars.
Frame it remotely
A motorised 2.8 to 12 mm P-Iris lens sets zoom and focus from the app and holds sharpness as light changes.
Ready to install
An IP67, IK10 metal bullet with a heater and an included junction box handles tough outdoor positions.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Long driveways and approaches
Reach up to 50 m at night and zoom in on a gate or vehicle with the powered lens.
Rural and acreage boundaries
Cover a long fence line in low light with human or vehicle alerts to cut false triggers.
Commercial perimeters
Watch a yard or car park edge after hours with clean low-light detail and 140 dB WDR.
Cold or exposed positions
Use the heated, weatherproof bullet on southern, coastal or unheated sites.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the box
One DS-2CD5A46G0-IZS bullet camera with the DS-1260ZJ junction box, a mounting template, fixings and a quick guide. The PoE switch or NVR, network cable and microSD card are supplied separately.
Installation requirements
Mount it on a wall, eave or pole aimed along the area you want to cover, using the supplied junction box for the cabling, and run one network cable back to a PoE switch or NVR, or use 12 VDC or 24 VAC. Set the zoom, focus and AcuSense rules in the software, add external audio to the line-in and line-out if needed, and record it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR.

Recommended packages
Record and search it
Connect it to a Hikvision AcuSense recorder such as the 8-channel DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR, or the larger 16-channel DS-7732NXI-I4/16P, so human and vehicle events stay quick to find. Add a surveillance-grade drive like the 8 TB for weeks of continuous footage.
Power it over one cable
Run a single network cable per camera from a PoE source. The HiLook 8-port PoE switch feeds several cameras and the recorder, keeping the cabling tidy on multi-camera sites.
Mount and extend
The DS-1260ZJ junction box is included for tidy cabling; for larger systems the DS-7732NXI-I4/16P NVR records up to 16 cameras with AcuSense search.
